Layers turned pink & green in After Effects

Some of my layers (png layers) turned different colors, like pink green and white as if they are corrupted files. I had just finished animating my graphic when I decided to moved my work area to 15s instead of 120s. When I did that 8 layers started previewing as a solid color layer (pink/green/white) in the composition window. I closed the software and rebooted and the problem still persists. Any ideas?

Let us know if you're still having the issue.
I am moving this thread from Bugs to Discussions for now.

 

Thanks,

I get the same thing all the time. M1 Studio. AE 24.4.0. Just updated AE tonight as a hail mary.

R3D footage. As you can see by the attached stills, it does it on random frames, not every frame. 

Outputs through the render cue are not affected, only frames within After Effects.

I clear caches more often than I save these days with how buggy AE runs. The pink frames come right back.

 

 

If I pre-render the R3D as a quicktime or image sequence, it appears to bandaid the issue.

Clear the caches and check your hardware acceleration. Update your graphics driver if necessary.
